Of the Father's Love Begotten
Author: Aurelius Clemens Prudentius; John Mason Neale; Henry Williams Baker Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 220 hymnals Topics: King, God/Christ as; Christmas; Christmas; Creation; King, God/Christ as; Majesty of God; Trinity Lyrics: 1 Of the Father's love begotten
ere the worlds began to be,
he is Alpha and Omega
he the source, the ending he,
of the things that are, that have been,
and that future years shall see
evermore and evermore.
2 O that birth forever blessed,
when a virgin, blest with grace,
by the Holy Ghost conceiving,
bore the Savior of our race;
and the babe, the world's Redeemer,
first revealed his sacred face,
evermore and evermore.
3 This is he whom seers in old time
chanted of with one accord,
whom the voices of the prophets
promised in their faithful word;
now he shines, the long-expected;
let creation praise its Lord
evermore and evermore.
4 Let the heights of heaven adore him;
angel hosts, his praises sing:
powers, dominions, bow before him
and extol our God and King;
let no tongue on earth be silent,
every voice in concert ring
evermore and evermore.
5 Christ, to you, with God the Father
and the Spirit, there shall be
hymn and chant and high thanksgiving
and the shout of jubilee:
honor, glory, and dominion
and eternal victory
evermore and evermore!
Amen.

Brighter visions beam afar;

Watching long in hope and fear,
Suddenly the Lord, descending,
In His temple shall appear.

Worship Christ, the new-born King.

Thee, the Father, Spirit, Son,
Evermore their voices raising
To th'Eternal Three in One.
Come and worship, Come and worship,
Worship Christ, the new-born King.

and left the lonesome place of death,
despite the rage of foes

shall dawn upon our race

and light and beauty brings.

Christ the child is Lord of all!

vigil till the morning new
saw the glory, heard the story,
tidings of a gospel true.

praises voicing, greet the morrow:
Christ the child was born for you!
Christ the child was born for you!

the little children sang;
through pillared court and temple
the lovely anthem rang.
To Jesus, who had blessed them,
close folded to his breast,
the children sang their praises,
the simplest and the best.
2 From Olivet they followed
mid an exultant crowd,
the victory palm branch waving,
and chanting clear and loud.
The Lord of earth and heaven
rode on in lowly state,
nor scorned that little children
should on his bidding wait.
3 "Hosanna in the highest!"
That ancient song we sing,
for Christ is our Redeemer,
the Lord of heaven, our King.
O may we ever praise him
with heart and life and voice,
and in his blissful presence
eternally rejoice.
